Abstract/Contents:Reports that "July 2012 was the hottest month on record in the 48 states since record keeping began in 1895," and overviews an article entitled "Perception of Climate Change." Mentions that the article covered "whether climate change is occuring, and, if so, what types of change are taking place." Explains that "global warming since 1951-1980 is about 1 degree Fahrenheit." Notes that global warming not only causes extreme heat, but will affect the water cycle since "the amount of water vapor that the atmosphere holds increases rapidly with temperature." States that the research conducted indicates that "extreme weather events will become much more frequent and more severe."
